1Opinion of the Court

CLEMENS, Judge.

Defendant Gene Alford was found guilty of burglarizing a gas station. Under the Second Offender Act the court sentenced him to seven years’ imprisonment and he has appealed.

For two reasons, we find nothing has been preserved for review. First, defendant’s motion for new trial was filed twelve days after expiration of the ten days’ time allowed. Rule 27.20(a), VAMR; State v. Laden, 536 S.W.2d 880 [2] (Mo.App.1976). Second, each of his three points relied on1 fails to state wherein and why the trial court erred. Rule 84.04(d); State v. Morrow, 541 S.W.2d 738 [16] (Mo.App.1976).
